An Idyllic Job

I would like a job where I got to learn and explain things. For example taking highly technical rules written in IRSese and explain them to ordinary people. Or all the stuff I know about history, politics, and science and put them into layman language. Or writing about it. I think I could be good, heck I might even be great, but what sort of job title would that be? Science writer? History Professor? Journalist? Distinguished talking head?

I like this one - Distinguished talking head!

Well, docent, but they rarely get paid. What about a science popularizer? Like Asimov was, and Pat Murphy from the Exploratorium?

(Please say "popular language" or something like that. My language is entirely capable of using big words and ideas.)
